  1. so apparently there's another apartment in my building with HVAC issues, and they were supposed to come to my apartment first, but there was a misunderstanding or something, and they're at the other place

    😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

    it's fine, I just wish I could have woken up at a reasonable time 🙃🥲

    anyway, now I'm going to a) continue listening to Clockwork Boys by T Kingfisher and b) fight monsters in Hyrule until the HVAC folks show up 🤷🏻

  2. good morning friends 😊 I've been dealing with anxiety and depression for a bit, but I appear to exist now 😅

    first, my plans for today:
    ✓ get dressed
    - breakfast
    - laundry
    - litter box
    - dishes
    - #HebrewStudy

    last week, during my body double chores thing with J, I went through my linen closet and threw out some things, but also found a bunch of things to donate (mainly cat things that I'm not currently using, but also a STACK of blankets), and it just feels so freeing, knowing they're all gone ... it makes me want to do more

    I want to go through my three giant bins of fabric and all my yarn next; I can either straight up donate the materials, or I can use them to make things for donation to shelters ... depends how much I just want things gone

    anyway, past time for breakfast; I'm starving

  4. welp ... I did The Call, but now I'm waiting for a call back 🙃🙃🙃 so I'm still anxious, but I don't think I'm going to throw up anymore?

    so, today's agenda is:
    ✓ breakfast
    - clean clothes
    - make the bed with clean sheets
    - wash my sheets
    - #HebrewStudy
    - afternoon tea

    until I get the call back, I'm going to try to be gentle with myself. listen to favorite music or old podcast episodes that I love, etc

  5. good morning! I have a phone call that I need to make today that I'm extremely anxious about, so I'm thinking about doing it before everything, even breakfast

    ... maybe I *should* eat first. I keep thinking I might throw up, but if don't eat, I'll be throwing up bile and my morning meds

    okay, super quick plan for today:
    - breakfast (something quick and dumb, like cereal)
    - perfume (to help ground me)
    - Phone Call
    - then back here for the rest of today's agenda

  7. CW: food + eye contact cat photo

    tea (or maybe ... #EnbyLunch?) was lovely, even though Link wanted my attention

    it's now 6pm, and my day has pretty much gone to plan:
    ✓ breakfast
    ✓ get dressed
    #HebrewStudy
    ✓ take out recycling
    ✓ take out garbage
    ✓ afternoon tea
    - play ARMS™

    so, do I have it in me to work on one more chore thing, or is it time for #videogames?

    I need to restock the cat food cans in the kitchen. that's a thing I can still do today. and then I think I'm done. my wrist hurts (carpal tunnel, hooray) so idk if I'm doing any writing today. guess I'll take some ibuprofen and see.

  9. I just gave the cats their midday snack, and I'm about to make afternoon tea, but I needed to sit for a minute ...

    my day so far:
    ✓ breakfast
    ✓ get dressed
    - #HebrewStudy
    ✓ take out recycling*
    ✓ take out garbage
    - check energy levels after that, maybe do more chores
    - afternoon tea
    - play ARMS™

    so I'm going to get up in a sec, make a tuna salad sandwich, and maybe review some Hebrew while I drink tea. then I'll decide what else I'm up for today

    I do have some stuff I want to write through (aforementioned "mental health shit"), but idk yet if I'm going to journal about it, or yell it into the void (aka, post it here)

    also, after the podcast, I started listening to This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar (one of my FAVORITE short story authors) and Max Gladstone via Libby

    *I only took out half of my recycling bc the bins weren't taken out when they should've been, due to road work, so they were really full, BUT I STILL DID IT SO I'M ALLOWED TO CHECK IT OFF, FOX

  11. good morning, mastodonians 😊 I'm feeling slightly energetic today, so my plan is:

    - breakfast
    - get dressed (including perfume)
    - #HebrewStudy
    - take out recycling*
    - take out garbage*
    - check energy levels after that, maybe do more chores
    - afternoon tea**
    - play ARMS™ (a boxing #videogame I got recently that uses motion controls)

    okay, time to make breakfast. more in a bit! 💜

    #LifeStuff

    *I live in an apartment building and garbage goes down a chute on my floor, whereas recycling is collected in the parking lot under the building, so they're v separate chores, in case anyone was curious

    **in an effort to trick myself into eating multiple meals a day, I recently instituted Afternoon Tea, which usually involves tea, a sandwich and some kind of dessert, like cookies or a little roll cake from the Chinatown Supermarket (which is the name of a little shopping mall/large grocery store plus little restaurants)

  13. Bloke finally finds a use for a nut and bolt from his collection

    His collection of odd nuts, bolts and washers goes back at least 60 years. Today Craig found a use for a nut and bolt to fix the handle on his lawnmower.

    Some of his collection may well have belonged to his dad.

  16. good morning, friends ... I woke up before my alarm went off??? bodies are confusing

    anyway, here's the plan for today:
    - breakfast/get dressed/etc
    - litter box
    - take out recycling
    - clear off my desk before therapy
    - therapy
    - #HebrewStudy
    - maybe take a nap
    - pick up the living room

    I doubt I'll get all of it done today, but so long as I make a start (and definitely get the litter box done today), I'll be happy

  18. morning, all 💜 (yes I'm going to open all my mundane life posts with "good morning", no matter what time it is)

    I have work soon, but I've done a lot today ... I paid my rent, mailed a package, dogsat Marco, and worked on a crochet project (a mesh tank)

    it's the day I normally do the weekly team meetings, but I didn't go today. I'll just watch the recording later, and I'll be able to talk to my supervisor about it today

  21. final update:
    ✓ breakfast
    ✓ Blanket Time™ with Midna
    - #HebrewStudy
    - take out recycling
    - litter box
    ✓ go to bed before 5am

    instead of doing the other things, I hung out with my friend T and his new dog, Marco! she's a rescue, and she's a little anxious and possibly came from an abusive situation, but she's very sweet and loves scritches

    anyway, it's 12:30am, and I'm super tired. I'm going to bed in just a minute 😴😴😴

    - take out recycling

    - go to bed before 5am

    my break just ended, but I initiated Blanket Time™ and I don't have it in me to kick her off immediately

    for those who don't know, Blanket Time™ is when I lay a fuzzy blanket on my chest, and my 3 year old black bobtail cat kneads my chest, licks the blanket till it's sopping wet and PURRS. it's a little gross, but very sweet 💜

    currently hanging out with close friends for a stitch & bitch/artsy craftsy hangout

    - a vintage handkerchief that I bought recently that has some lacy crocheted edging that I want to replace
    - a shirt that I'm going to add some decoration to
    - my current knitting project
    - a small writing project

    I'm definitely going to work on the first two, and I'll post some photos

  28. morning all! I don't know how it got to be 2pm, but I'm sure it's fine 🙃

    today's the sixth annual #PrideSeder hosted by a local group that I'm sort of associated with (this is my 2nd year on the Pride Seder committee*)

    I've already eaten breakfast and taken my morning meds ... I'm planning on showering before the #Seder, and I need to look over the readings I volunteered to do

    *I learned about it last year and I wanted to make sure the #Haggadah was as #GenderNeutral as possible

  31. well I didn't sleep last night, and I thought maybe I'd nap today, but but so far that doesn't seem to be happening

    the apartment inspection was super quick, and I'm currently watching #LowerDecks and #knitting. I'm super close to finishing my bulky bolero thing. I'm working on the turtleneck bit, and I'll pretty much just go until I run out of the eggplant color

    THEN I'll share a photo, and I'll start planning my next project. and maybe take a nap ...

    my B12 is normal, but low-normal, and my D is also low, but my iron saturation is at 9%, so that's fun! I'm supposed to start vitamin D supplements and my psychiatrist sent a message to my doctor's team about the iron thing

    in the meantime, J has also been dealing with low iron/anemia, so they gave me some suggestions about how to deal with that ...

  43. I do not understand how I keep finding More Yarn. I've gone through about half the boxes, and managed to empty one box just by taking out a bunch of #fabric and #yarn. of course, I don't have anywhere for the fabric to go, which is why it was in one of those boxes. I have three very large Rubbermaid-style tote boxes stuffed with fabric, and my #100DaysOfWardrobe is just as much about busting my #FabricStash as it is about my #YarnStash

  48. good morning, 12 inches of snow!!! (#SaltLakeCity is predicted to get another 4-9 inches of snow today???)

    good thing I don't have to leave my house if I don't want to. good thing I picked up my groceries yesterday.

    I am quite tired today. BUT my plans for today include starting a new #fiberArts piece for both #fiberuary and #100DaysOfWardrobe ... I just have to check my yarn stash, and then I'll post more about it. maybe I'll make some tea first 😴
